DNR Launches Seafood Marketing Logo Contest

Calling all artists ─ painters, sketchers, graphic designers! The Maryland
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is looking for someone to create a new
Maryland Seafood logo. The winning design will be used to in seafood marketing
programs throughout the State.

"As we develop new opportunities to promote the goodness and value of
Maryland seafood, we want to update the campaign with contemporary artwork,"
said Steve Vilnit, DNR Fisheries marketing director. "Something more fresh, if
you will."

The new logo should be suitable for both online and printed promotional
material and should work in both color reproduction and grayscale printing. All
artwork must be converted to digital and should be no less than 300dpi.

The creator of the winning design will enjoy a Chesapeake Bay trip for five
where they will harvest their choice of Maryland’s three prime native seafood
species ─ blue crabs, striped bass or oysters.
